51. 英语的由来：上史料记载的最早的语言是公元前500年左右的凯尔特语(Celtic)。公元前55年，罗马人入侵大不列颠，并一直占领了大约500多年，拉丁语进入了该地区，并成为官方语言，凯尔特语的地位下降。约公元449年，居住于丹麦与德国北部的3个日耳曼人部族趁罗马帝国衰落入侵到大不列颠岛上。他们分别是盎格鲁人（Angles，入侵日德兰半岛中部）、萨克逊人（Saxons，入侵日德兰半岛南部）和朱特人（Jutes，入侵日德兰半岛北部）。在语言上，他们取代了当时该地所使用的凯尔特语。这三个日耳曼部族方言随着社会发展，逐渐融合为一种新的语言，即盎格鲁一萨克逊语（Anglo-Saxon），这就是后来形成的英语的基础。到公元700年，人们把大不列颠岛上三部族混合形成的语言称为Englisc。到公元1000年，岛上整个国家被称作Englaland。这两个词后来就演变成English（英语）和England（英格兰或英国）这就是English和England两个词的历史由来。

51. Origin of English: The earliest language recorded in history is Celtic around 500 BC. In 55 BC, the Romans invaded Britain and occupied it for about 500 years, during which Latin entered the region and became the official language, causing Celtic to decline. Around 449 AD, three Germanic tribes living in northern Denmark and Germany invaded the island of Britain as the Roman Empire declined. These tribes were the Angles (invading the central part of Jutland Peninsula), the Saxons (invading the southern part of Jutland Peninsula), and the Jutes (invading the northern part of Jutland Peninsula). In terms of language, they replaced the Celtic language that was being used in the region at the time. As society developed, the dialects of these three Germanic tribes gradually merged into a new language, known as Anglo-Saxon, which became the foundation for the language that would later be called English. By 700 AD, the language formed by the mixture of the three tribes on the island of Britain was referred to as Englisc. By 1000 AD, the entire island was called Englaland. These two words later evolved into English (the language) and England (England or the United Kingdom), thus becoming the historical origins of the words English and England.
